Brooklyn electronic-metal outfit TRIP VILLAIN have dropped their latest single “Cyan Spirits”, offering another glimpse into their second full-length album “Dose”, set to arrive via Seeing Red Records.

Frontman Josh Musto explains about the song:

I’ve associated the sound of the Roland 303 with the color cyan since my brief stint running lights at Basement, a dystopian Berlin-style techno club in Queens. They were very strict that I only use red lighting, but I could throw in a little cyan here and there if there was acid bass (303).

The middle section of this song was the first thing Jon ever sent me for Dose. I wrote the lyrics to ‘You Flew a Plane Into My Heart’ and “Cyan Spirits” a few days after watching a friend of mine have a bad acid trip at a rave. As we walked in, Aurora Halal was in the middle of an incredible hardware set of warm, earthy, inviting techno.

People had been dancing since the previous morning, so the concrete floor was soaked in a half-inch of liquid – an insidious cocktail of spilled drinks, sweat, and God knows what else. ‘My feet fumble with fear, splashing mystery liquid.’

The venue doubled as a WeWork-style space during the day, complete with fully glass ceilings, which had been blocked by a shoddy patchwork of black garbage bags, save for one tiny hole which let an extremely bright sunbeam tear through the illusion of darkness ‘A single beam of lights assaulting my gaze.’ And then… darkness washed over the crowd.

The record will be released on LP and digital formats on May 8 via Seeing Red Records, with preorders available via Bandcamp and digital presaves already open.
